ABOUT US
Welcome to our new chapter in Salt Lake City!
After incredible years in Boston and Cape Cod, where we helped countless dogs and their owners build stronger bonds and teach their dogs to behave politely, we are thrilled to bring our expertise and passion to Utah.
My name is Lexi (Alexa), and I am the owner and lead trainer of our dog training business. Originally from Germany, I grew up in the mountains, fostering a love for nature and animals.
With years of experience working with dogs of all kinds and formal education from Bergin University of Canine Studies—where I earned my certification as a Service Dog trainer—I specialize in creating customized training plans tailored to each dog and family. My expertise ensures that every dog can thrive in their unique role while strengthening the bond with their owners.
Our time in Boston and Cape Cod was filled with amazing clients and unforgettable experiences. From helping city pups navigate busy streets to giving families the tools to raise confident, well-mannered dogs, every moment reinforced my belief in the power of understanding and communication between humans and their furry companions.
Now, in Salt Lake City, I’m excited to bring the same personalized approach to this outdoor-focused community, including training dogs for adventure etiquette so they can join you confidently in your outdoorsy hobbies. Whether you’re tackling puppy challenges, addressing behavioral concerns, or enhancing your dog’s skills, I’m here to help!

When Lexi is spending her time with dogs, it s the closest thing to unconditional love I could witness so far.
